The tin is round and silver in color. I have found some references (in collector/metal detector forums) about the red cross handing them to WW II soldiers. This "Koin-pac" was found in a soil level that also contained a German Finnig and was wondering if anyone could point me to any reference material. I've been searching for days with no luck, anything would be helpful at this point. Thanks in advance.

Coin packs were found in WWI contexts at Santa Elena (Parris Island 
Marine base)
